On the same day she expects to be promoted at her job (until her boyfriend Paul swoops in and takes the position), Natalie receives a letter from a lawyer in Santa Cruz saying her mother has died and the only way for her children to inherit their family’s large, historical home is for all three adult children to come back and claim it.

SIERRA GODFREY is a tech editor by day who loves writing stories about complex relationships. She lives in the foggy wastelands of the San Francisco Bay Area with her husband, sons, and a bevy of animals, all of which seemed like a good idea at the time.

Natalie drives to Santa Cruz, expecting to sign some documents, see siblings Lynn and Jake, and get back to her life in Boston. But Jake, now an award-winning scientist, is missing. And Lynn, working as an undertaker in NYC, shows up with her teenaged son. While Natalie and her nephew look for Jake—meeting a very handsome Spanish scientist in the process—Natalie takes stock of her life and the guilt she has held dear for so many years.

At Heim Hochland, a Nazi sanctioned maternity home in Bavaria, three women’s fates are irrevocably intertwined. Gundi is a pregnant student from Berlin—an Aryan beauty, she’s secretly a member of a resistance group. Hilde, only 18, is a true believer in the cause and is thrilled to carry a Nazi official’s child. And Irma, a 44-year-old nurse, is desperate to build a new life for herself after personal devastation. All three have everything to lose.

JENNIFER COBURN is a USA Today best selling author of six novels and contributor to four literary anthologies. Over the past two decades, Coburn has received numerous awards from the Press Club and Society for Professional Journalists.

Based on untold historical events, this novel brings us intimately inside the women’s homes that actually existed in several countries during World War II, when thousands of babies were taken from their mothers to be raised as part of the new Germany. But it proves that in a dark period of history, the connections women forge can carry us through, even driving us to heroism we didn’t know we had within us.

The Invincible Miss Cust A Novel

Penny Haw

Everyone kept telling her no, but Aleen Cust stopped at nothing to become Britain’s first female veterinary surgeon

•

Bestselling author: Katee Robert is a New York Times and USA Today bestselling author with over a million copies sold

•

Many entry points with wide appeal: Historical fiction, royalty/aristocracy, animals, unlikely romance, and a WWI setting give this story wide reader appeal

•

Elevated and engaging writing: The author is a highly competent writer, whose prose sweeps readers into the story

Drawn to animals at a very young age, Aleen Cust (b. 1868 and d. 1937) was an English aristocrat who battled the odds to become Britain and Ireland’s first woman veterinary surgeon. She was shunned by her family who was mortified by her ambitions to be educated and work for a living. Despite having successfully trained in Scotland, she was prohibited from qualifying by the Royal Society of Veterinary Surgeons (RSVS) based solely on her gender. Nonetheless, Aleen practiced as a vet without a license for twenty-two years before receiving her diploma in 1922. During this time, she worked in Ireland with a vanguard Irish vet, Willie Byrne. Despite their differences—he was Irish Catholic, working class, and a nationalist and she was a noblewoman and Protestant—they had a passionate love affair. After his tragic death, Aleen defied the RSVS yet again and took herself to the Western Front to work with the military horses during World War I. PENNY HAW is a long-time journalist and columnist and latter-day author. She has written for many leading South African newspapers and magazines for more than three decades. The Wilderness Between Us was her debut contemporary novel for adults. Haw lives in Cape Town, South Africa.

For readers of Marie Benedict, Tracey Enerson Wood, and James Herriot comes an engaging tale of ambition, inspiration, and love, based on the true story of a woman ahead of her time, who defied the patriarchy, society, and her family’s wishes to pursue a career in a science-based field, paving the way for other women in veterinary science.

Smart and funny women’s fiction: For readers of Maria Semple, Kelly Harms, Abbi Waxman, Kristan Higgins

After years of struggling to make ends meet, single mom Ginny Miller falls for sweet, divorced Jeff, and relishes the idea of moving her quirky eleven-year-old daughter Harri to his lavish home in an upscale New Jersey suburb. Though she’s never been impressed by material things, she is thrilled that getting a second chance at love comes with the added bonus of finally giving Harri everything she never could before. And then she meets the neighbors.

After graduating from the Newhouse School of Communications at Syracuse University and spending many years as an advertising creative director and copywriter in New York City, LISA ROE accepted the tougher job of stay-at-home mom and turned to writing fiction—mostly to entertain her kids, but then to tell her own stories. Lisa lives with her husband and three incorrigible dogs in New Jersey, in the same suburb where The Real Housewives of New Jersey live.

Ginny is quickly thrust into the complicated realities of Elderberry Lane—a street defined by the ever-shifting alliances of PTA moms, Real Housewife contenders, and their mean-girl daughters. When the neighbors’ secrets, back-stabbing and bad behavior take a devastating toll on her daughter and new marriage, Ginny must decide what really matters—and protect it at all costs.

Wren Roland has never been kissed, but he wants that movie-perfect ending more than anything. Feeling nostalgic on the eve of his birthday, he sends emails to all the boys he (ahem) loved before he came out. Morning brings the inevitable Oh God What Did I Do?, but he brushes that panic aside. Why stress about it? None of his could-have-beens are actually going to read the emails, much less respond. Right? Enter Derick Haverford, Wren’s #1 pre-coming-out-crush and his drive-in theater’s new social media intern. Everyone claims he’s coasting on cinematic good looks and his father’s connections, but Wren has always known there’s much more to Derick than meets the eye. Too bad he doesn’t feel the same way about the infamous almost-kiss that once rocked Wren’s world.

TIMOTHY JANOVSKY is a queer, multidisciplinary storyteller from New Jersey. He holds a degree in theatre and dance from Muhlenberg College.

How Do I Un-Remember This? Unfortunately True Stories Danny Pellegrino

From Danny Pellegrino, creator of the hugely successful podcast Everything Iconic! Stories that will make you laugh, cry, and dig up all your awkward middle-school pictures.

•

Enormous fanbase: Danny’s podcast had over 13.5 million downloads in 2020, and he consistently sells out arenas for his live shows

•

Witty humor mixed with pop-culture savvy: Perfect for fans of David Sedaris and for anyone with a little ‘90s nostalgia

•

Appeals to underdogs and outsiders, and touches on mental health: Danny grew up as a closeted gay kid in conservative Ohio. He has grappled with anxiety and depression, and he struggled to make ends meet before starting his podcast. Danny’s stories will be a source of joy and hope for readers who have ever felt this way.

Growing up in small-town Ohio isn’t easy, particularly when you’re a closeted gay kid surrounded by... no one openly gay. Luckily, Danny Pellegrino grew up in the ‘90s, coming of age when the internet opened up a whole new world for a curious kid itching for life outside of Midwest suburbia. Danny escaped the pains of growing up by submerging himself in a sea of pop culture— bingeing The Nanny until he had the confidence of Fran Fine, belting out Brandy songs until his heartaches were healed, and watching every semi-clothed Ryan Phillippe scene known to man. Now, as a successful podcaster interviewing the same iconic personalities that he idolized as a kid, Danny’s life has only become more entertaining and delightfully chaotic.

The Day I Die

The Untold Story of Assisted Dying in America Anita Hannig

The first work of character-driven nonfiction to passionately, lucidly, and sensitively explore the legal practice of medical assistance in dying, now in paperback •

First of its kind: The first commercial work of nonfiction to provide an in-depth exploration of the experience of individuals choosing to pursue physician-assisted death under current U.S. laws

•

Qualified author: Dr. Anita Hannig has conducted extensive research, including volunteering in hospice settings and attending the assisted deaths of several individuals, and treats the subject matter with the dignity and empathy it deserves

•

Accessible: Clear, accessible writing and a structure driven by narrative elements and characters we follow through the book make this a fascinating, if at times emotional, read

The Day I Die is a major work of nonfiction that tackles the one issue we’ll all eventually come to face—our final days, hours, and minutes. With clarity and empathy, award-winning anthropologist Anita Hannig uncovers the stigma against the practice of assisted dying, untangles the legalities and logistics of pursuing an assisted death in America today, and profiles the dedicated advocates and medical personnel involved. In intimate, lyrical detail, Hannig explains why someone might choose an assisted death and how that decision impacts their loved ones. In a time when nearly 80 percent of Americans die in hospitals and nursing homes, medical assistance in dying could transform the way we die for the better, allowing more people to define the terms of their own death. DR. ANITA HANNIG is associate professor of anthropology at Brandeis University, where she teaches classes on the cultural dimensions of medicine and death. Over the past four years, she has studied how access to medically assisted death is transforming the ways Americans die.

What the Children Told Us

The Untold Story of the Famous “Doll Test” and the Black Psychologists Who Changed the World Tim Spofford

For readers of The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks and Hidden Figures, What the Children Told Us tells the story of an iconic partnership that set the stage for decades of civil rights activism

•

Market: Readers continue to seek out stories of forgotten figures from history, particularly the stories of Black people and other POC whose influences have been overlooked

•

Author expertise: The author has devoted more than a decade to researching and writing the book and has exclusive access to the Clarks’ family photos and documents

•

Incredible read: Well-drawn characters, an immersive setting, and important historical events and figures woven into the story make this an unputdownable read for fans of serious narrative history

As a young Black couple in the 1940s, Kenneth Clark and Mamie Phipps knew the devastating impact of segregation firsthand. But the Clarks revealed the true impact of segregation in a psychological study that would resonate for decades to come, in which they asked Black children which kinds of baby dolls they preferred: brown or white. Two-thirds of the children surveyed chose the white doll, and some even denied their own skin color.

TIM SPOFFORD’s writing career has focused on racial issues in education. Spofford has taught writing and journalism in schools and colleges and has a Doctor of Arts in English degree from the State University of New York at Albany. His work has appeared in the New York Times, Newsday, Mother Jones, and other publications. He lives with his wife, Barbara, in St. Petersburg, Florida, and Lee, Massachusetts. Visit him at timspoffordbooks.com.

This is the story of the towering intellectual and emotional partnership between two Black scholars who highlighted the undeniable psychological effects of racial segregation. Paving the way for the landmark Brown v. Board of Education case and engaging in unrelenting activism over several decades, the Clarks’ story is one of courage, love, and an unfailing belief that Black children deserved better than what society was prepared to give them.

Monsters Born and Made Tanvi Berwah

She grew up battling the monsters that live in the black seas, but it couldn’t prepare her to face the cunning cruelty of the ruling elite •

Fantastic writing: Absolutely fantastic writing with incredible pacing and world building that transports you into this lush South Asian-inspired setting

•

Tropes that YA readers love: Classic fantasy tropes feel fresh, interesting, and perfect for the teen fantasy audience

•

Well-connected author: Melissa Albert had this to say about a previous short story: “A mesmerizing account of love, loss, and revenge, entwined with a mythic family history. It’s all spikes and rising oddity, a sharp-toothed thing that nods to Helen Oyeyemi and Kelly Link, but does its own thing.”

Sixteen-year-old Koral and her older brother Emrik risk their lives each day to capture the monstrous maristags that live in the black seas around their island. They have to, or else their family will starve. In an oceanic world swarming with vicious beasts, the Landers—the ruling elite, have indentured Koral’s family to provide the maristags for the Glory Race, a deadly chariot tournament reserved for the upper class. The winning contender receives gold and glory. The others—if they’re lucky—survive. When the last maristag of the year escapes and Koral has no new maristag to sell, her family’s financial situation takes a turn for the worse and they can’t afford medicine for her chronically ill little sister. Koral’s only choice is to do what no one in the world has ever dared: cheat her way into the Glory Race. TANVI BERWAH is a South Asian writer who grew up wanting to touch the stars and reach back in time. She graduated from the University of Delhi with a Bachelor’s and Master’s in Literature of English, and lives in India. Monsters Born and Made is her debut novel.

But every step of the way is unpredictable as Koral races against contenders who have trained for this their whole lives and who have no intention of letting a low-caste girl steal their glory. When riots break out and rogues attack Koral to try and force her to drop out, she must choose—her life or her sister’s—before the whole island burns.

As unrest inside of Baltimore grows throughout the days-long lockdown, Marco, Catherine, and Jamal take the fight directly to the chief of police. But the city is corrupt from the inside out, and it’s going to take everything they have to survive.

Alon, a local teenager, watches a production crew of an American documentary-style reality show set up on Kisapmata (called the “Godseye” by the Americans), an island off the coast of the Philippines rumored to be cursed. Two producers offer to pay them to be the crew’s tour guide since other locals have refused to set foot on the island. Within minutes of their arrival, a sinkhole appears, revealing a mummified corpse entwined within a balete tree growing underground. Rattled, the showrunner explains to Alon the purpose of the show: to investigate the island’s legend of a Dreamer god that supposedly grants believers unspeakable powers in exchange for eight sacrifices.

Despite uncanny resemblances to Japanese revenants, RIN CHUPECO has always maintained their sense of humor. Raised in Manila, Philippines, they keep four pets: a dog, two birds, and a husband.

A mysterious journal they find on the island lends credit to the curse and poses a sinister riddle: He who sleeps in the mouth is He who sleeps in the eye. The first to eat, the second to seed, the third to wear, the fourth to birth, the fifth to serve, the sixth to lure, the seventh to consume, the last to wake. The roles of each seem to align with the known sacrifices. As the crew falls victim to the island’s curse one-by-one, Alon must figure out a way to stop the Dreamer before it destroys more than just the island.

Listen to the Language of the Trees A story of how forests communicate underground Tera Kelley & Marie Hermansson

This fascinating picture book explores the underground communication system between trees and helps young readers see that the natural world’s survival depends on staying connected and helping others—just like us!

•

Explores a fascinating, trending topic: Reveals the underground communication system of tree roots in a forest to young readers, a fairly new revelation in the scientific world

•

•

Universal themes of compassion and community: Introduces children to the idea of the interconnectedness and importance of community, helping each other thrive, and assisting others when there is danger

Readers will discover that trees have their own social network, and helping one another thrive is trending. The fascinating mycorrhizal fungi network runs underground through the forest via the roots of trees, allowing for connection and communication. TERA KELLEY was a children’s bookseller for six years, and her first book, Ocean Baby, was selected for the ocean curriculum of Santa Cruz’s Migrant Head Start Program. She is currently a freelance writer and editor in Northern California, where she works at a local library. Find out more about her work at terakelley.com.

Listen to the Language of the Trees captures the magic of talking trees that take care of their neighbors (not to mention the mysterious fungi that help them do it). A lyrical read aloud, Listen to the Language of the Trees is the story of a seedling, newly sprouted at the base of a giant tree. As it stretches its roots into an underground web of fungi, it learns that its fellow trees use the fungi to pass messages and share resources! It will take great luck for this tiny seedling to survive, but it will have help from its friends in the forest. The Douglas fir forest also harbors creatures like a zany Yellow Pine chipmunk gathering and forgetting seed cones, an owl nested in the giant tree, and chattering Steller’s jays. And, as we must never forget, no part of the forest is entirely free from danger!

Paris Architect A Novel

Charles Belfoure

The paperback release of the October 2013 Indie Next Pick that booksellers, librarians, and reviewers can’t stop talking about

• WWII Paris novels have very high success rates in trade paper—City of Women, Sarah’s Key, The Invisible Bridge • Great blurbs for the hardcover from authors (Jenna Blum), booksellers, and the trades, including a starred review from Library Journal • Fresh architecture angle. Author’s mother, born in Poland, worked in German factories before working for U.S. Army intelligence in occupied Germany

Like most gentiles in Nazi-occupied Paris, architect Lucien Bernard has little empathy for the Jews. So when a wealthy industrialist offers him a large sum of money to devise secret hiding places for Jews, Lucien struggles with the choice of risking his life for a cause he doesn’t really believe in. Ultimately he can’t resist the challenge and begins designing expertly concealed hiding spaces— behind a painting, within a column or inside a drainpipe— detecting possibilities invisible to the average eye. But when one of his clever hiding spaces fails horribly and the immense suffering of Jews becomes incredibly personal, he can no longer deny reality. An architect by profession, Charles Belfoure has published several architectural histories, one of which won a Graham Foundation Grant for architectural research. He graduated from the Pratt Institute and Columbia University, and he taught at Pratt as well as at Goucher College in Baltimore, Maryland. His area of specialty is historic preservation. He has been a freelance writer for the Baltimore Sun and the New York Times. He lives in Maryland. For more information, visit www.theparisarchitect.com.

Epic finale: The thrilling conclusion to the Empirium trilogy—all remaining questions will finally be answered

Queen Rielle, pushed away from everything she loves, turns to Corien and his promises of glory. Meanwhile, whispers from the empirium slowly drive her mad, urging her to open the Gate. Separated from Audric and Ludivine, she embraces the role of Blood Queen and her place by Corien’s side, determined to become the monster the world believes her to be. In the future, Eliana arrives in the Empire’s capital as a broken shell of herself. Betrayed by those she trusted, she fights to keep her power at bay—and away from Corien, who will stop at nothing to travel back in time to Rielle, even if that means destroying her daughter. But when the mysterious Prophet reveals themselves at last, everything changes, giving Rielle and Eliana a second chance for salvation—or the destruction their world has been dreading. CLAIRE LEGRAND is the author of several novels for children and young adults, most notably The Cavendish Home for Boys and Girls, Some Kind of Happiness, and Winterspell. Claire lives in Princeton, New Jersey. Visit claire-legrand.com.
